Coastal and Hinterland Population Hotspots in sub-Saharan Africa


Population Hotspots in Africa South of the Sahara

http://tools.harvestchoice.org/popTrends

Interactive map and graphs showing Africa’s urban areas over 50,000 inhabitants (2015). Bubble sizes represent relative city sizes, and the color intensity is proportional to the projected 2000-2020 population gain (or loss) based on estimates from CIESIN SEDAC Global Population of the World (GPWv4). Country totals are calibrated to UN population projections. This tool explores the differential urban growth rates between coastal and hinterland areas.

Long-term Climatic Trends

http://tools.harvestchoice.org/rainfall

This interactive tool renders long-term gridded monthly precipitation, near-surface temperature, and Palmer Drought Severity Index (PDSI) time series for sub-Saharan Africa. Gridded estimates are summarized across districts (level-2 administrative) based on FAO GAUL 2008 boundaries for the period of 1960-2013. District-level means, seasonality-adjusted means (trend), and standard deviations are provided. All data may be downloaded in CSV or STATA formats. The 1960-2013 spatial rasters for each country may also be saved to GeoTIFF, ASCII Raster, and netCDF formats for use in a desktop GIS.
